  Reduced antigenicity of the hepatitis B virus HBsAg protein arising as a consequence of sequence changes in the overlapping polymerase gene that are selected by lamivudine therapy.
 PMID: 11886250       2002       Virology
Abstract: HBsAg mutants including E164D, W196S, I195M, M198I, and E164D/I195M (corresponding to the polymerase protein changes of V519L, M550I, L526M/M550V V553I, and V519L/L526M/M550V) selected during lamivudine treatment also demonstrated reduced binding to anti-HBs antibody.


  Efficacy of famciclovir in the treatment of lamivudine resistance related to an atypical hepatitis B virus mutant.
 PMID: 11792996       2002       Transplantation
Abstract: The severe hepatitic flare consequent to the lamivudine resistance in this patient was successfully treated with famciclovir, indicating that both M550V and M550I mutants with preserved wild-type sequence at position 526 of HBV reverse transcriptase are susceptible to famciclovir.
Abstract: Treatment with famciclovir has not been effective in the majority of patients who developed lamivudine resistance due to methionine-to-valine mutation at position 550, because this mutation has been uniformly associated with leucine-to-methionine mutation at position 526, a mutation that is associated with resistance to famciclovir.


  In vitro susceptibilities of wild-type or drug-resistant hepatitis B virus to (-)-beta-D-2,6-diaminopurine dioxolane and 2'-fluoro-5-methyl-beta-L-arabinofuranosyluracil.
 PMID: 11502520       2001       Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy
Abstract: The M550V substitution in isolation conferred a similar phenotype to M550I, except that it did not confer significant resistance to L-FMAU.
Abstract: We found that the M550I and M550V plus L526M substitutions, which confer lamivudine resistance, did not confer cross-resistance to adefovir or DAPD, but conferred cross-resistance to L-FMAU.


  Cross-resistance testing of antihepadnaviral compounds using novel recombinant baculoviruses which encode drug-resistant strains of hepatitis B virus.
 PMID: 11353615       2001       Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy
Abstract: For these studies, novel recombinant HBV baculoviruses which encoded the L526M, M550I, and L526M M550V drug resistance mutations were generated and used to examine the effects of these substitutions on viral sensitivity to lamivudine, penciclovir (the active form of famciclovir), and adefovir, three compounds of clinical importance.
Abstract: The following observations were made: (i) the L526M mutation confers resistance to penciclovir and partial resistance to lamivudine, (ii) the YMDD mutations M550I and L526M M550V confer high levels of resistance to lamivudine and penciclovir, and (iii) adefovir is active against each of these mutants.


  Inhibition of the replication of the DNA polymerase M550V mutation variant of human hepatitis B virus by adefovir, tenofovir, L-FMAU, DAPD, penciclovir and lobucavir.
 PMID: 10760047       2000       Journal of viral hepatitis
Abstract: As expected, lamivudine was much less ( approximately 200-fold) effective at inhibiting replication of the M550V mutant virus than the wild-type virus.
Abstract: Several nucleoside analogues (penciclovir, lobucavir, dioxalane guanine [DXG], 1-beta-2,6-diaminopurine dioxalane [DAPD], L-FMAU, lamivudine) and acyclic nucleoside phosphonate analogues (adefovir, tenofovir) that are in clinical use, in clinical trials or under preclinical development for the treatment of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infections, were evaluated for their inhibitory effect on the replication of a la- mivudine-resistant HBV variant containing the methionine --> valine substitution (M550V) in the polymerase nucleoside-binding domain.
Abstract: The antiviral activity was determined in the tetracycline-responsive HepAD38 and HepAD79 cells, which are stably transfected with either a cDNA copy of the wild-ty


  Selection of multiresistant hepatitis B virus during sequential nucleoside-analogue therapy.
 PMID: 10669360       2000       The Journal of infectious diseases
Abstract: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) drug resistance to lamivudine is always accompanied by mutations in the viral polymerase gene at position 550, termed group 1 (M550V with L526M) or group 2 (M550I) mutations.


  Sensitivity of L-(-)2,3-dideoxythiacytidine resistant hepatitis B virus to other antiviral nucleoside analogues.
 PMID: 10353255       1999       Biochemical pharmacology
Abstract: When these single mutations were coupled with the M550V/I mutation, all the double mutants were resistant to those drugs.


  Analysis of hepatitis B virus quasispecies changes during emergence and reversion of lamivudine resistance in liver transplantation.
 PMID: 10682123       1999       Antiviral therapy
Abstract: Lamivudine resistance was found to be associated with L526M and M550V changes in two patients and M550I change in three patients.


  Novel patterns of amino acid mutations in the hepatitis B virus polymerase in association with resistance to lamivudine therapy in japanese patients with chronic hepatitis B.
 PMID: 10502255       1999       Journal of medical virology
Abstract: In the remaining patient, an alteration of leucine to methionine at residue 428 co-occurred with M550V.
Abstract: Lamivudine resistance has been attributed mainly to a substitution of isoleucine or valine for methionine at residue 550 (M550I or M550V) in the catalytic site of the virus polymerase.
